UML API : BehavioralFeature::setMethod(Behavior behavior) is missing ? [message #478401]

Hello,

I have an UML Activity and a class model. Now I want to connect them to
each other programmatically.

The class model has one UML::operation which refers to the UML activity
model. I noticed that UML::operation API has the "getMethod()"
(inherited from UML::BehavioralFeature). I am just wondering why there
is no "setMethod(org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Behavior behavior)" available. I
think this method would perfectly match my needs.

Regards,

Deepak

Deepak, behavioural feature can have multiple methods. You can either use:

operation.getMethods().add(behavior)

or

behavior.setSpecification(operation)
